Fully revised and updated by Oz, with new entries on key wineries,
vineyards and producers from around the country. 'It's brilliant.
Exactly what's wanted. -' Hugh Johnson One of the great pleasures
of wine is to drink it where it is grown and made. The opportunity
to meet growers, winemakers and winery owners is what draws people
to visit wineries and to 'have an experience in the vineyard'. This
is your essential guide to find out about England and its world
beating sparklers and still wines that have captivated the wine
world. The modern view of English wine is of a country amazingly
blessed with vast tracts of soil suitable for viticulture, much of
it almost indistinguishable from the chalky slopes of Champagne and
Chablis, and of a country taking full advantage of the vagaries of
climate change to ripen Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to levels perfect
for sparkling wine, and increasingly excellent still wines. this
book helps you find the best English and Welsh wines, from fizz,
whites, some impressive reds and even dessert and orange wines. The
book includes: -Exciting Times How it used to be; The Nyetimber
effect; Climate: is it almost perfect now?; Location is key;
Planting like made; A question of style: sparkling or still; and
Grape varieties: a race to the top. -British Bubbles What is needed
to make good fizz; Champagne, the original fizz; Bubbles and how
they're created. -A Tour Of the Regions - covers personal
experiences and reflections from Oz's many years of visiting
talented and passionate producers up and down the country. From
Yorkshire to the far west of Cornwall and across to Wales, a small
but dynamic part of the UK's wine movement, Oz recommends wines he
has enjoyed and found interesting and encourages you to try for
yourself.
